Is a toggle switch sort of like a pickup selector?

its the same yes. ============ Incorrect. Many pickup-selector switches are toggle switches, such as on a Gibson Les Paul. But many, many guitars have toggle switches that do not act as pickup selectors. For example, a Gretsch 6118 Anniversary has a toggle switch to activate a bassy tone circuit. A Brian May Guitar signature has toggle switches for phase options on the three Burns Tri-Sonic pickups, and separate toggles for on/off on the pickups. Some guitars have a toggle switch that activates a mid-boost or volume boost. "Toggle switch" is just a broad term for a family of switches that can serve a variety of functions. Not necessarily for pickup selection.

How does the Fender S-1 switching system work?

If you have a guitar or bass with 2 single coil pickups, when they are both switched on they are parallel. The S-1 switch, or any other DPDT switch, changes this to series. This way your 2 single coil pickups will work together as 1 humbucker, creating a higher output and a warmer tone.

Can pople use strat pickups in a telecaster?

Not without some serious modifications. The most common use of a strat pickup in a telecaster is to add a strat pickup in the middle position. In order to do this, one must route the guitar's body and pickguard to accommodate the pickup. This configuration often requires a 5 way pickups selector switch, which means replacing the stock 3 way switch of a telecaster. Unfortunately strat pickups cannot replace tele pickups without routing. The telecaster neck has different dimensions than a strat pickup, and the bridge pickup has a special mounting.


Can someone explain the use of the 1 one tone knob and the 5 way pickup switch on the Ibanez E-guitar and what settings to use for what sounds?

A 5 way selector is commonly found on guitars with 3 pickups , a humbucker in the bridge , single coil in the middle and a humbucker in the neck. So the 5 way selectors job is to select only one or more pickups at a time to offer different sounds on the guitar. The way the selector is pointed will tell you which pickup is selected and this is common on guitars from all brands. The bottom position is your bridge pickup which is closest to where the strings begin , the middle position is all 3 pickups and the top position closest to the neck is your ....you guessed it neck pickup. The bridge pickup will offer heavier sounds if you play the right notes and the neck for soloing as the output (intensity) of the neck pickup isn't as powerful as the neck for a reason. The more you play the more you'll see uses for switching pickups on the selector. The tone knob on the other hand it depends on how you use it I know a lot of guys who are endorsed and so forth who never touch the tone knob or have guitars built without it , but used properly it can do a lot of stuff from Eric Clapton to Carlos Santana type stuff. you will also see a 5 way selector on guitars with two humbuckers this feature is called a mega or super switch depending on brand. It makes the pickups do different stuff but this feature is usually found on expensive guitars and keep in mind a 3 way blade switch looks like one but only goes in three positions. Bridge , middle and neck.
